Pasta with Cauliflower, Prosciutto, and ParmesanOur whole family enjoyed this flavorful pasta that I cooked tonight. Despite the chicken broth, this is a relatively dry pasta, but it is very flavorful. We added the crushed red peppers at the end because some of our kids can't take the heat, but I thought they added an important dimension. If your rushed for time, you can skip… |

Ginisang Monggo (Monggo Beans stew)Monggo beans has been one of the primary meal of any Filipino family. Everyone has tried this for sure. It can be used as a substitute for rice too. I like to eat it as is without rice. |

Easy Chinese Asparagus and BeefThis is so easy to make that I'm almost embarrassed to put it on. However, my Chinese friend Joyce said "I could eat this every night!" when she tasted it, and I almost agree. It has a great classic Chinese flavor. Nothing fancy, but lots to like all the same! |

Vegetable LasagnaLasagna laced with garden vegetables and whole wheat noodles makes a healthier pasta alternative to traditional lasagna. Don’t let the list of ingredients and/or chopping daunt you.(I just consider it my afternoon therapy session.) The veggies are cut in small pieces to layer better between noodles. Sub any combo of veggies preferred… |

Southwestern Sweet Potato CasseroleI adapted this from a Stuffed Acorn Squash recipe that sounded great. My kids aren't big fans of squash...but they do love yams and sweet potatoes. I thought this was wonderful served with warm rice. I sprinkled cayenne on mine to spice it up a bit. It was even better as leftovers the next couple of days. The photo did not come… |

Ham & Cabbage HashThis is a fast dinner-in-a-skillet recipe, and a good way to use up leftover ham or roast beef. Lots of vegetables make the meat go further and keep calories, fat, sodium and carbs to a reasonable level. A healthy and homey stand-by recipe for breakfast and/or casual dinners. |

Creamy Spinach PillowsBefore my family and I changed to a plant-based diet, one of our absolute favorite recipes was the Tuna Puff or others may call it Chicken Pillows. So I decided to come up with a vegan version of one and the ending result being Creamy Spinach Pillows. They turned out better than I actually thought they would I tried looking for a… |

Stuffed Zucchini BoatsAs summer draws to a close it's always nice to find a surprise in the garden. We found a few left over zucchinis hidden among the yellowing leaves and decided to make this great stuffed zucchini boat recipe. This is a filling, healthy delight for an evening dinner for two. Of course, if you have enough zucchini, simply double the… |

Italian Steak SaladWe adapted this from a Giada De Laurentis recipe. It's simple, but incredibly delicious. Our kids powered through more than we imagined possible. No leftovers at all! The biggest change was serving the steak hot of the grill instead of chilled. That makes a huge positive difference I think...as the warm steak contrasts wonderfully… |

Easy Chinese Green Beans with PorkThis is a very easy and healthy Wok meal that I often throw together with fresh green beans and extra pork roast or pork chops. It tastes great with very little or no pork too, if you prefer vegetarian dishes. This is best done in a wok over very high heat, but you can stir fry it in a large saute pan if you do not have a wok. This… |

Ricotta and Greens or Spinach PastaThis is another excellent dish that takes advantage of delicious and healthy greens. This is a Sicilian dish that I absolutely love. Our kids all went back for seconds. It's also quite beautiful...the lousy picture I took does not do it justice. A healthy and yummy treat! This is also adapted from Red White and Greens by Faith… |

PURPLE AND WHITE EGGPLANT PARMIGIANA--BAKED--NOT FRIEDI think that the first time I ever made eggplant parmigiana was in 1979. Back then, it was the "typical pizza parlor" dish with eggplant fried in vegetable oil and then covered with that Polly-O mozzarella cheese "stuff" that was wrapped in plastic and tasted as such, dusted with Parmigiano "cheese" that had the consistency of baby… |
